At one time or another everyone needs help or an answer to what seems like a simple question. The Resource Guide is designed to link peoples’ questions or problems to the agency or
organization best able to provide the needed assistance.
The listings in this brochure are by no means inclusive of all of the services in the Juneau County area.
We believe that consumers are in the best position to evaluate and choose resources appropriate to their needs.
